I too encourage you to pursue this project on this forum. I LOVE old single shots, just returned a Ballard 22RF conversion to the Green Frog and wish I could have kept it for myself. Ballards are IMO perhaps the ultimate Schuetzen action and I've always wanted to build a self-setting 4-lever trigger like Frank de Haas shows in one of his books.

What are your thoughts on tight-breeching? I've done it on walls and did it on Froggie's RF Ballard but am still undecided about the accuracy benefits if any.

Do you or any others here have any experience with tight-breeching a single shot? I've heard that Harry Pope liked to do it this way but am lacking details....
Regards, Joe
